I will try it, if fiddling with ears won't solve the issue. "Arms
straight out at shoulder height" (as I tried it sitting on my chair)
may be good for some adjustments, but I'm afraid it can become
painful, if one works with CS controls constantly.

It took me some time to find a layout of instruments, where everything
was "on its place". While it may sound ridiculous, the ergonomy of
your environment may hamper or boost your creativity. Having a quick
access to different segments of edit menu thanks to the mentioned 16
buttons makes a huge difference between any P2K-based module and
Command Stations. Last time when I was preparing presets for the gig
it was a breeze; actually, I was working with PK-6, but it's the same.
And being able to quickly recall 16 presets with those buttons in PK-6
makes it even more user-friendly.
